mPortfolios:supporting reflection using mobile devices

I attended a JISC research event on mobile portfolios, this is a move away from e-portfolios which have had a some success when used for the purpose they should be used for to support learning, engage the student and give ownership of learning to students.

An approach to mobile portfolios
  1. No need to create a new lesson or project, use original lesson planning material.
  2. Portfolio development process (in stages describe the development process)
  3. Collection, storage strategies of different file formats. 
  4. Reflection/Storytelling  through blogging. 
  5. Setting goals.
  6. Formative and Summative Assessment and Evaluation. 
  7. Managing media ( focusing on PicasaWeb, YouTube, Vimeo, Flickr) 
  8. Use of Mobile Apps 
  9. Sharing (showcase some examples of student blogs or portfolios that have been developed using mobile devices during the course and provide feedback)
